First,let Me say that even if it took a long time to get the site squared away after the move, IT WORKS GREAT A lot faster and smoother.Thanks again Jim S.for all your hard work .
That being said,I do have one small problem that is happening when I log-in to the picture gallery from the Armorama web site.It's not that big a deal,but something that is different since the move.
When I am done with the gallery,and I click the drop down box and highlight Armorama to go back to the site,when the tab switches,I have to re-log into the site.Thanks.Jeff T.

I've just tried that and it works fine for me, still logged in.

Do you use Armorama.com or armorama.kitmaker.net? I would suspect that you are using the .com domain. If you use the kitmaker.net domain no matter which site you log into it will keep you logged in to all the other sites in the Kitmaker Network. Try that and see what happens?

Logins are always top level domain based, so you can never share login/cookie details with two different domains. So for example when, for the first time, you move from https://armorama.kitmaker.net to http://gallery.kitmaker.net you would not be logged in. When you login on that domain it sets up the right info for the gallery, but not the main site, so when you use the pulldown to return to Armorama and it sends you to http://armorama.kitmaker.net, you still would need to login for the main site.

As Allen said though if you change your site links to http://armorama.kitmaker.net and login there, you won't have this issue AND you will be logged in for all our sites to boot.

Cheers,
Jim
